Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Orthobiologics are organic and synthetic materials that help in the cure of musculo-skeletal problems and are utilized in Orthopaedic Surgery, both in and out of the surgical theater, to augment the possibilities of curing bone and soft tissue lesions. Taking into account that their effect is frequently multifactorial and, in some occasions not entirely comprehended, together with the insufficient clinical information, orthobiologics should be scrupulously assessed against other secure and clinically accepted options. The fundamental orthobiologics today ready for use in Orthopedic Surgery are the following: osseous hollow fillers, extracellular matrix (ECM) substances, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), bone marrow aspirate (BMA), bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). It is predictable that in the time to come we will have more secure and more efficacious orthobiologics. Meanwhile, it is paramount that orthopedic surgeons have appropriate information of contemporary orthobiologics (biological adjuvants) so that they can utilize them correctly.
